Description

❤️ The 2022 Philadelphia Tango Festival offers four days of pure celebration and overflowing love: for tango dancing, for tango music and for the tango community. ❤️

? It highlights the contributions of women in tango with an all-female teaching cast, offering a rich diversity of workshop topics aimed at all genders, levels and roles:

? CARLA MARANO & PHI LEE LAM
? INES MUZZOPAPPA & GABY MATALONI
? MICHELLE LAMB
? REBECCA RORICK SMITH 

? It celebrates the renaissance of new and live tango music, presenting four different bands, with both seated concerts and electrifyingly danceable music for the milongas:

✅ JUAN VILLARREAL & PATRICIO CROM (for the 1st time in the U.S.!)
✅ TANGO WITH WINNIE (presenting an all-female tango quartet)
✅ The ROMO-AGRI-MESSIEZ Trio
✅ The TIPICA MESSIEZ, making its first appearance since the sky fell

? It features (mostly) female DJs:

? TINE HERREMAN
? CAROL HOROWITZ
? REBECCA RORICK SMITH
? KERRY KAY
? CRAIG HERRINGTON (who will DJ and host the after-party milonga)

❤️ It goes beyond tango dance and music to explore and celebrate tango as a culture and community.  In addition to all the workshops & milongas you would expect, its richly diverse offerings include:

✅ Filmmaker YAEL SZMULEWICZ will be showing and leading discussions on tango documentaries.
✅ Panel discussions will explore important & current topics in the tango community.
✅ Yoga classes with three great teachers will help us maintain our bodies inside the intensity of the festival. Our yoga teachers are greatly beloved by the tango community: CAROLYN MERRITT, MONICA MOYA & REBECCA RORICK SMITH.

‼️ Please plan to join us in Philadelphia, June 2-5! ‼️
